Abstract

A seatback assembly structured to at least partially support a seated individual on a wall, specifically but not exclusively, a pre-existing or newly constructed wall configured to facilitate one or more individuals to sit on an exposed portion thereof. The seatback assembly includes a back support orientation to and extending along the length of the wall and a connector assembly disposed in an operative position interconnecting the back support to the wall. The connector assembly includes at least one or a plurality of brackets, each including a base and a support segment and an anchor interconnecting each of the one or more brackets at least partially on the interior of and in stabilizing relation to the wall. A supporting orientation of the back support includes it connected to the wall in receiving, engageable relation to a seated individual.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A seatback assembly for at least partially supporting a seated individual on a wall comprising:
 a back support including a predetermined length extending along the length of the wall, 
 a connector assembly comprising at least one bracket and an anchor; said anchor disposed in interconnecting, stabilizing relation between said at least one bracket and an interior of the wall, 
 said connector assembly attached to the wall in an operative position and interconnecting said back support to the wall in a supporting orientation, 
 said supporting orientation comprising said back support disposed in receiving, confronting relation to at least a back of the seated individual, 
 said operative position of said connector assembly comprising said anchor and at least one portion of said at least one bracket disposed on an interior of the wall, substantially beneath an exposed top level of the wall, and 
 said operative position of said connector assembly further comprising said anchor connected to said at least one portion of said at least one bracket on an interior of the wall; an entirety of a remainder of said anchor extending downward from said at least one portion into an interior of the wall. 
 
     
     
       2. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein said supporting orientation further comprises said back support disposed in the substantially aligned relation to a rear exposed periphery of the wall. 
     
     
       3. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 2  wherein said supporting orientation further comprises said predetermined length disposed along the length of the rear exposed periphery of the wall. 
     
     
       4. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 3  wherein said predetermined length of said back support is sufficient to support a plurality of seated individuals concurrent to said supporting orientation of said back support. 
     
     
       5. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein said connector assembly comprises at least one bracket including a base and a support segment; said support segment fixedly connected to one end of said base and extending outward, at a predetermined angle therefrom. 
     
     
       6. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 5  wherein said connector assembly further comprises an elongated anchor connected to said base; said operative position of said connector assembly comprising said anchor extending outwardly from said base into an interior of the wall. 
     
     
       7. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 6  wherein said anchor comprises a pin having a predetermined length, said pin including one end connected to said base and a remainder of said predetermined length extending downward from said base into an interior of the wall. 
     
     
       8. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 7  wherein said operative position of said connector assembly comprises said base and an entirety of said pin disposed within an interior of the wall, substantially below an exposed top level of the wall. 
     
     
       9. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 7  wherein said predetermined length of said pin is substantially about 10 inches; said operative position further comprising said anchor having one end secured to said base and said base and an entirety of said predetermined length of said anchor disposed into an interior of the wall. 
     
     
       10. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein said connector assembly comprises a plurality of brackets extending in spaced relation to one another along said predetermined length of said back support in interconnecting relation between said back support and the wall. 
     
     
       11. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 10  wherein said connector assembly further comprises a plurality of anchors each connected to a different one of said plurality of brackets in attached, stabilizing relation to the wall. 
     
     
       12. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 11  wherein said operative position of said connector assembly comprises at least a base of each of said plurality of brackets disposed within an interior of the wall, substantially below an exposed top level of the wall. 
     
     
       13. The seatback assembly as recited in  claim 12  wherein said operative position of said connector assembly further comprises each of said plurality of anchors secured, on an interior of the wall, to said base of a different one of said plurality of brackets; said bases of said plurality of brackets and corresponding ones of said anchors connected thereto disposed in their entirety on the interior of the wall. 
     
     
       14. A seatback assembly for at least partially supporting a seated individual on a wall comprising:
 a back support attached to and extending along the length of the wall, 
 a connector assembly disposed in an operative position interconnecting said back support to the wall; 
 said connector assembly including a bracket comprising a base and a support segment, 
 said operative position of said connector assembly comprising said anchor connecting said base in stabilizing relation to the wall within an interior of the wall, 
 said supporting orientation comprising said back support disposed in receiving, engageable relation to the at least one seated individual, 
 said anchor comprising an elongated pin connected to said base, 
 said operative position further comprising said base and an entirety of said pin disposed on an interior of the wall in supporting, stabilizing relation to said support segment, and 
 said operative position of said connector assembly further comprising said base disposed within the wall, substantially below an exposed top level of the wall and said support segment fixedly connected to said base extending outwardly from the wall in supporting attachment to said back support.
